bmad-create-story

To generate implementation-ready developer stories, this skill resolves the target epic and backlog story, loads PRD and architecture context, and applies workflow guardrails to produce an exhaustive developer instruction document. It ensures devs receive exact build constraints and compliance rules.

Automate sprint planning by using this skill to discover the next backlog story from sprint-status.yaml or a user-provided epic-story identifier. It analyzes the story against architecture and UX artifacts, then updates the sprint status to ready-for-dev upon checklist validation.

Preventing LLM developer mistakes requires applying workflow-driven guardrails during story generation. This skill enforces anti-mistake guidance including no reinvention, correct file locations, regression preservation, and UX compliance, while injecting prior-story intelligence to maintain continuity.

Story generation works with BDD acceptance criteria and UX artifacts by selectively loading these documents during context synthesis. The skill integrates behavioral acceptance criteria into the story blueprint, ensuring the developer agent validates functional compliance against UX specifications.

Create a story implementation blueprint by triggering template-based story generation after workflow customization resolution. The skill executes activation steps, loads selective artifacts, and validates against checklists, outputting a dedicated file enforcing architecture compliance and developer guardrails.

Dev agents implement wrong approaches when they lack exhaustive context synthesis from PRD, architecture, and prior stories. This skill solves that by resolving workflow customizations and generating an instruction document with strict guardrails preventing architectural deviations and missed constraints.
